Hello!

I`m new to this forum and want to greet the community!
My name is Alex, I have 10 yrs hiking experience in Eastern Europe and Kaukaz mountains. I`ve formed a group of 40+ followers with whom I hike up to 10 times every year.
Hopefully, one day we will hike in US too:)

As I organize our hikes by myself, I want to ask if anyone has found desktop, online or mobile apps that facilitate and help during the hike preparation process.

The top issues I`d like to tackle are :
Proven and manageable gear lists for different types of hikes, which are used as checklists while packing the bag
Solutions that help distribute general (not personal) gear among the hiking group (e.g. tents, axe, kitchen gear)
Apps that help distribute food among the group basing on weight, meals and even backpack total weight decrease

I personally use Excel for all the planning and managing.

Can anyone suggest apps they are using?
